Sunday Pt1

Up late. Well after 8am anyway. A nice lie in.

Looking through the patio doors to see... Not a lot.



Just the sea. Later there would be the odd oil rig.

Breakfast was in the Peninsular Restaurant where our freedom dining allows us to eat. The freedom bit is time rather than being stuck to a set meal time.

Then a wander. Then a snooze. Then lunch again Peninsular Restaurant.

I had pate and the veggie pasta option.

At both meals we had met and sat with other people from across the UK and at lunch a guy from Texas who lives in England. All very nice and we chatted along.

We searched out the promenade deck but it is not possible to do a full 360° trip of the ship.

We did find the theatre where we caught the end of the port information.

As tonight is Black Tie we need to be spruced up and out to shake the Captain's hand at about 6pm or so.

Blog moved to Travellerspoint

By
I decided that trying to maintain different platforms for the blog(s) was getting difficult to maintain and so I have decided to move all the travel blogs to Travellerspoint. All the vehicle specific blogs such as "Suzi Triplo" will stay in Blogger. Only any that are travel oriented such as "Cruising" and "Devall Travel" have been given up and entries in future will be in  The new home of Devall Travels . Travellerspoint

Saga Spirit of Discovery - The Visit

By
Firstly. Let's get this out of the way.  The lunch was absolutely bloody marvellous.  From appetiser to the cheese and then a light sorbet for dessert.  The Angus steak perfectly cooked for me.  Cut like velvet.....  There were veggie options too. The service from the crew was as expected top class.  It sounds snobbish (for a working class bloke!) to say that although I enjoyed last year's Norway cruise with P&O, Saga tops them for service and that idea that cruising is still a rich person's holiday. It's not of course. Before that we had a coffee in the cruise terminal.  We went with friends, Ulli and John, but didn't get on the tour with them. The ship is really nice and we had a trip around all the decks and a view of the cabins. This will be an all-inclusive ship and for us oldies, it's free of children!   As it is almost new the show cabins were actually just cleaned as the ship was just back from a cruise, in fact the...
